Real Madrid take on Real Sociedad in La Liga on Sunday night in Madrid and have some injury concerns ahead of the league clash against the in-form Basque side.
Ferland Mendy will miss the game through injury, and Austrian defender David Alaba is also out.
French midfielder Aurélien Tchouaméni looks like he could return to action soon after a spell on the sidelines with a calf injury, but will not feature in the late kickoff at the Santiago Bernabéu.
Versatile defender Nacho is expected to start at right-back, with Eder Militao and Antonio Rüdiger at centre-back and Eduardo Camavinga will deputise at left-back to replace the injured Mendy.
AS predict that Carlo Ancelotti will field the following starting XI against Real Sociedad: Courtois – Nacho, Militao, Rüdiger, Camavinga – Valverde, Kroos, Ceballos – Rodrygo, Benzema, Vinícius.
Kickoff at the Santiago Bernabeú gets underway at 9 pm local time.
